Tabloid view: Great response and price discussions

Daily newspapers Blick in tabloid format is selling better than expected, Markus Rohr, member of the Blick editorial team, told SDA. Figures are to be published at the end of the month. Readers were particularly critical of the fact that the sports section could not be removed as with the SonntagsBlick. There is also discussion as to whether the sales price for the small format should be adjusted downwards. "Blick is worth 1.80 francs, whether large or small," Ringier's newspaper boss Bernhard Weissberg emphasized to the SonntagsZeitung.
